Chapter 18 Are you not afraid of him anymore?
Zhao Fangye's words fell into his ears.
The prime minister's sharp eyes suddenly shot out two cold rays.
His hawk-like eyes stared at Zhao Fangye, his tone full of grimness: "You know? Did she tell you?"
They both knew who this "she" was.
Without answering, Zhao Fangye looked at him coldly, the veins on his hands placed on the table bulging, revealing the owner's anger.
There was a stalemate for a while.
Suddenly, the prime minister laughed sinisterly. She said nonchalantly, "So what? As the daughter of the Wang family, this is what she should do."
Seeing his expression, Zhao Fangye felt his throat churning and he felt nauseous.
In his grandfather's eyes, as long as he could preserve his wealth and enormous power.
Everyone can be used as a pawn by him, even his only daughter is no exception.
Zhao Fangye is no exception.
When Queen Wang entered the palace, she won the emperor's favor with her beauty that was the most stunning in the capital.
The Wang family was once in great glory.
But after entering the palace, Queen Wang avoided the emperor's favor like the plague, and even wanted to commit suicide at one point.
The emperor was deeply in love with her and did not blame her for this.
It was not until he discovered that Queen Wang had privately set up a tablet in the palace to commemorate her lover that he became furious. In a rage, he forced Queen Wang.
Zhao Fangye became pregnant at that time.
Zhao Fangye almost died when he was still in Queen Wang's belly.
Queen Wang didn't want to give birth to him and even wanted to commit suicide with him. Finally he was stopped by the emperor. Someone was assigned to watch over her every day until she gave birth.
After Zhao Fangye was born, Queen Wang even tried to strangle him several times. There is no love or care for him at all.
Leave him in a side hall to fend for himself.
The emperor had a beautiful woman at that time, who is now known as Concubine Xiao. The newlywed's features are charming and gentle, and she has a bit of Queen Wang's demeanor.
The new person replaced the old one, and the emperor was completely disgusted with Queen Wang and ordered her to be confined to Kunning Palace.
Naturally, the prince Zhao Fangye was not valued by the emperor. Queen Wang disliked the child and refused to be nice to him in the slightest.
Zhao Fangye was raised by a nanny and lived in the Kunning Palace, which was isolated from the outside world. Because Queen Wang disliked him, he was looked down upon in Kunning Palace.
No one cared about them because they were hungry and had no warm clothes. They were so hungry that they could only snatch the leftovers from the palace servants.
You will also be laughed at and insulted by the palace servants, calling you a slut.
A prince lives worse than a servant.
When he first went to school at the age of seven, he was bullied and insulted by the prince born to Concubine Xiao and a group of people.
They surrounded him, beat him, and forced him to endure the humiliation of being raped. Verbally abused him and called him a bastard.
They said that his mother was unfaithful to her husband and that he was a bastard from outside the palace.
He is obviously the eldest son of his father. Why should I be bullied like this by my younger brother who is a few years younger than me?
He originally thought that he would feel better after leaving Kunning Palace, and he could go to his father for help.
Kneeling in front of the Qianqing Palace, he begged to see his father, but all he got was a look from his father-in-law as if he were looking at a dead dog.
He didn't even get to see the emperor.
Kneeling outside the palace, the sounds of his brother and father playing inside reached his ears. It was like an arrow piercing the heart, piercing through a heart full of hope and causing it to bleed.
Zhao Fangye, who was only seven years old, didn't understand why the people around him were so malicious towards him. It was as if he was not supposed to be in this world.
Everyone unwelcome him, bullied him and trampled on him.
But he didn't understand what he had done wrong.
Later he realized that his birth was a mistake.
And this mistake was caused by this octogenarian.
Zhao Fangye suppressed the anger in his chest and looked at his greedy face: "Isn't the power in your hands enough? Most of the power in the court is in your hands, but you are not satisfied?"
"My dear grandson, you must know that it is difficult for outsiders to control power for long. To hold on to power, you must reach the top. This is why I support you."
The prime minister withdrew his hand and stood in the hall with his hands behind his back. He looked at Zhao Fangye who was sitting on the chair with a sarcastic tone.
"Don't forget. If it weren't for my true self, you would still be a dog under the prince's feet that can be bullied by everyone. Now that you have grown strong, you want to rebel against my true self?"
Sitting on the chair, Zhao Fangye clenched his fists until his knuckles turned white. Hatred surged in his pale eyes, but he gritted his teeth and endured it.
Now that he has not yet established a firm foothold in the capital, it is not appropriate to anger the prime minister.
"Grandpa, you're joking. Isn't my grandson just a chess piece in your hand? How can I resist you?"
He loosened his clenched fist and tapped the table lightly with his slender fingertips. Zhao Fangye looked at him sarcastically with his light eyes.
"It's good that you know." The Prime Minister snorted and laughed: "As for that idiot, I don't care what you are thinking. If you hinder my great cause, I don't mind doing it myself."
After saying this, without caring about Zhao Fangye's reaction, the prime minister strode out of the study.
When he stepped out of the door, he bumped into Song Huaixi who was holding the Baihao Silver Needle. The Prime Minister glared at him fiercely, snorted coldly, and left.
Unable to dodge, Song Huaixi almost spilled a pot of hot tea on himself. He was given a cold look for no reason. He was stunned for a long time before he took the tea into the house.
The study was silent. Zhao Fangye was leaning on a chair, his face hidden in the shadow of the bookshelf.
Having never seen Zhao Fangye like this, Song Huaixi looked confused and slowly walked over to put the tea on the table.
Zhao Fangye leaned back in his chair with his head tilted back, his light-colored eyes fixed on one spot, a cold and stern aura lingering around him.
Squatting in front of him, Song Huaixi put her head on his legs.
She looked up and called him, "Zhao Fangye, what's wrong with you?"
“........”
"Would you like some tea? I brought it to you. I made it myself. Would you like to try some?"
Song Huaixi blinked and saw that he was motionless like a statue. She reached out and touched his hand and rubbed it against her face.
"What's wrong with you? Did that fierce old man scold you just now?!" The more Song Huaixi thought about it, the more he felt that he was right and he became emotional.
He knew at first glance that the old man was not a good person, and it must be a bad guy bullying Zhao Fangye!
"How could he be so mean! Can I go and scold him for you? He must not have gone far!"
Having said that, Song Huaixi stood up and was about to rush out angrily. He wants to avenge Zhao Fangye!
He paused while walking out and lowered his head.
Zhao Fangye held his hand.
The pair of pale eyes finally moved, turned to look at him and said calmly
"Are you not afraid of him?"
In the shadows, Zhao Fangye stared at him with his eyes flashing with a faint light. This is the first time in my life that I heard someone was going to support me and then bully me back.
He is still a little fool who knows nothing about the world.
Just seeing the Prime Minister was enough to frighten him to the point of his legs going limp. Now, Song Huaixi actually said he wanted to chase him out and scold him?
"Don't be afraid!" Song Huaixi said angrily, "He made you unhappy! He is bad! I am not afraid of him if he calls you a bad guy!"
"Really?" Zhao Fangye pulled him into his arms and looked into his clear eyes.
With complicated emotions in his eyes, he said in a low voice: "Thank you Huaixi."
